Solomonster reviews a very enjoyable post-Double or Nothing edition of AEW Dynamite for May 31st, with Tony Khan announcing the return of CM Punk for the AEW Collision debut, and doing so to a very mixed reaction in the building (and online). Let the fun and games begin. Plus, Don Callis melts in the HEAT generated inside the building in a segment where, at time, it was difficult to hear him because it was so loud. Adam Cole and Britt Baker also wrestle Chris Jericho and Saraya, why it was the right outcome and the match was light years better than their Unsanctioned match last Sunday.

Transcript

Tonight was the post double or Nothing edition of a EW Dynamite. On this the final day of May. It is the last day of the month. No AW World Champion tonight, MJF. We did have a video package, but he was not on the show tonight. We didn't get any clarity on who he may be either working with next or defending his championship against Next. But we did have a major announcements, of course, one of many we

get them seemingly every week from Tony Khan. Tony Khan promised a major announcement tonight concerning the debut episode of AEW Collision, which as you know, is premiering on June seventeenth on TNT from the United Center in Chicago, Illinois. And he was going to make an announcement about that debut episode. And it didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what that announcement was probably going to be. It was the worst kept secret in wrestling. You see right there

there he is right there. The big announcement is that cmpunk is coming back, and Cmpunk will not only be on the debut edition of Collision in Chicago, but he will be on every episode of Collision going forward. And the real story here was the reaction in the arena. They were in San Diego tonight. The reaction in the arena really told a very interesting story when they

made that announcement. So we will talk about what the reaction is and really what the most important thing is to look for going forward as far as cmpunk of these crab reactions are concerned, and beyond crab reactions, what the most important aspect is going to be of the cmpunk return And really one of the main reasons why Tony conn is bringing this guy back in the first place. But now the cats out of the bag, so we know cmpunk is on

the way back, putting that announcement on the side. Though this was overall, I thought an excellent show and one of my favorite segments of the entire show. Of all people involved, Don Callos. Don Callis now has dominic Masterio heat in this company after what he did at Double or Nothing, after what he did to Kenny Omega weeks ago in the cage match with John Moxley.

Of course, we know that Canos gate Takeshta went heel at the end of Double or Nothing on Sunday. He is aligned with Don Callis they came out for a promo segment tonight, if you could hear what they were saying because it was so loud in the building. This was not piped in crowd noise. You could see people in the background, You could see people in other sections. When they would cut to the crowd. These people were on

their feet, they were shouting. They did not like don K. He got the kind of heat that if you are a heel man, you would kill for this type of nuclear heat. And I love you. Even Tony Schavani at the beginning of the segment said that he could feel they say vile. I thought he said the word vile. I think he meant bile, but he could feel the bile coming up in his throat. He was so disgusted that he had to introduce this man. It was great. It was

great. And by the way, there was no MJF on the show in the building tonight, no Kenny Omega either, but there was a mention of Omega during another backstage segment that I think kind of tipped their hand as far as where this story may be going, So we'll talk about that as well. Mixed Tag Team main event tonight, they gave Adam Cole, Britt Baker, Chris Jericho and Srea the main event spot on the show. And they went out there and Jericho and Adam Cole had a better, much better match

than they had at the pay per view on Sunday. This was a much better match than we got from them at Double or Nothing, with a much better crowd. This is a much livelier crowd than the crowd they had in Las Vegas. But it was just a better and more enjoyable fun match then we saw on Sunday with these two. But even better than that is the outcome of the match and what it means for Adam Cole going forward, because Adam Cole not only came out a winner on Sunday, he came out a

winner over Chris Jericho tonight as well. So with any luck, we will not be getting at other three or four or five or six months of Adam Cole and Chris Jericho, of Adam Cole and the Jericho Appreciation Society, and he can move on. That was maybe the best part of the entire thing. No build at all tonight for Forbidden Door, which is the next pay per view coming up on Sunday, June twenty fifth. I expect that to change coming out of the New Japan Dominion Show, which is coming up this

Sunday. It's one of their big annual events, so I would expect starting next week we will begin to probably see some interesting cameos on these shows, and the cards should start to come into better focus. But this is your AEW Dynamite Review four, the final day of May May thirty first, two thousand and twenty three. I am the Solemn Monster. Thank you for joining me here as I know you do each and every Wednesday, Please do subscribe.

We opened things tonight on Dynamite with the Blackpool Combat Club. We had John Moxley, we had Claudio Castignoli, we had Wheeler Utah taking on Bandido and the Luca Bros. Hot Opener. Here we got a Hot Trio's match to open the show tonight. Ex Caliber had Brian Danielson with them on commentary and he asked, Brian Danielson, point blank, you wanted to know, point blank on commentary if Cano, Skate to Keshta and Don Callis were now

officially part of the Blackpool Combat Club. And Danielson deflected and he said, actually we'll be hearing from Don Callis a little bit later on in the show, and perhaps he'll have more to say on that later on. So that

was a nice little deflection there by Danielson. There was a spot in this match where Penta and Phoenix, they had Moxley and Claudio each locked in a submission hole, and while that was going on, Bandido had Wheeler Utah in a vertical suplex position and he held this guy up there for sixty reps, so he had the crowd counting along in batches of ten sixty seconds. He

had this guy hanging upside down before he finally dropped him. And all I know is that if somebody held me upside down like that for sixty seconds, I don't think that would make me feel very good. So but Bandido is fun man. Another thing about Bandido is every single time we've seen him on Dynamite, every single time we have seen him, doesn't matter who he's in

the ring with, he gets these crowds behind him. And we've had other luchadors on the show or I mean, but there's something about this guy. He's got a certain physical CHARISMI even with the mask on, that was always a big thing in WWE, Luca guys would come in, a lot of them. They would unmask, Right, why is this guy wearing a mask? He's good looking, he can't show face expressions and there's something to that. But even underneath the mask, he just has a certain charisma that that's

why both companies were after him. So it doesn't matter what city they're in, it doesn't matter who he's in the ring with. He has a knack for getting the crowd behind him. He's just fun to watch and this crowd in San Diego was no different. So then Bandido hit a tornado, died from the top rope laid out John Moxley. Bandido got a pop up cutter on Utah and then a huge frog splash for a close near fall. Daniel

said attributed on commentary. He was talking about Utah and he attributed the training that they have done with Utah for him to be able to kick out there. He said, a year ago, he never would have been able to kick out of that, but because he's been training with us now he's able to kick out of stuff like that. So Moxley saved Utah from the twenty one plex attempt by Bandido. Claudio flew in with a super cut or he had no super cut. I just combined up were cut and super kick to

super cut. There you go. I challenge any wrestler out there. I want to see you adopt the super cut. There you go. I just gave you a new move. So Claudio flew in with an upper cut and that led to you to hitting a very Brian Danielson esq busaikuni and some anvil elbows followed, and then the seat belt for the wind. This was a really fun opener. As soon as I said I was having fun. Jacob Donnelly activating Bremode for twenty five bucks. Jacob, thank you, He says,

no special message, just wanted to activate Bremode. Who doesn't love Bremode here? And yeah, who doesn't. As I was saying, this was I thought a really fun opener with a hot crowd. And again, as would double or nothing, they give the winning pinfall here. They did it anarchy in the arena. They did it again tonight, not to John Moxley,

not to Claudio, not to Danielson. On Sunday. The name talents who really don't need the rub, they give it to the one guy who needs it right, they give it to the one guy who is not on the same level as them and could really benefit from picking up a win. They give it to Willie ut twice in a row now, So I like that. It's important for him to pick up some big wins to show that he's more than just a little shit, which is what Danielson calls him.

He calls him a little shit, but he's our little shit. Well, you gotta give the little shit some wins. And they did that again here. But this was fun. I enjoyed this. So then we go to the back and Alex Marvez is with the Young Bucks and hangman Adam Page. Matt Jackson was getting his foot taped up after the exploding sneaker spot on Sunday. He was walking around with one shoe on, one shoe off, and that one foot that had no shoe audit. He unfortunately for him, got

umped into thumb tacks, so that didn't feel too good. So he was getting his foot wrapped here he told the guy to, you know, leave get away. So Matt Jackson started talking and he said the Blackpool Combat Club brings out the worst than them. He said he never thought that he would ever try to burn someone's face off with an exploding sneaker. But here we are. Paige said that they're still standing and they're still swinging while the Blackpool

Combat Club relies on the numbers game. Eva Luno entered the shot with Alex Reynolds and John Silver. They sarcastically apologize for ooh, you're with your friends. We don't want to interrupt you, right, So they're being all sarcastic and Paige was going to go after them to explain, but Marvez asked about the rumor that Kenny Omega. Not only was Kenny Omega ad here tonight, but the rumor going around the Kenny Omega had left the country to go back

home, to go back to Canada. Page said that Omega was hurt. He said that Omega was pissed off, but he was not at home in Canada. He said, so the implication being the way that I read this, the implication being that yes, Kenny Omega is not at home in Canada because he went back to his other home in Japan. The idea of being that he's looking to recruit somebody to bring into even the numbers here, the numbers are a little lopsided right now, and gee, I wonder who that

could be. I wonder who Kenny Omega could be in Japan potentially recruiting. But again that's just the way that I read this saidment here. So after a break, Tony Chavanni was in the ring to introduce Bullet Club Gold Switchblade,

J White, Juice Robinson for an interview. They threw their arms around at Tony Chavanni in the ring, and Jay White said that Ricky Starks probably feels like he or felt like he was on top of the world after eliminating him and Robinson from the Blackjack Battle Royal that was on Sunday for the international title. White said that Starks is not the aw International Champion because he lost

that match, just like he lost to j White. So White said that Starks is not the International Champion, as I said, because he lost the match. And Robinson brought up the Tag Team Champions FTR, and he was wondering why why would they In that backstage segment on Sunday, when Juice and Jay attacked Ricky Starks FTR came to their rescue. We wanted to know why

why would they get involved here? Why would they save Ricky Starks. Robinson said Starks has no friends, and j White said that FTR are a couple of Southern boys, which means they're probably a little slow and they look a little dumb too. So FTR walked to the ring. We had FTR Balld and FTR Hair, the reigning tag team champions. They came down to the ring. Robinson assumed they were there to apologize, and Jay White assumed that they wanted to join Bullet Club Gold. He said, all they had to

do was asked politely. So Dax Harwood held out his hand for the microphone, j White dropped it in front of him, and then Robinson blindsided Harwood with a cheap shot, a fistful of quarters. Not quite the rolls of quarters that Jacques Brujau used on Dynamite Kid back in eighty eight, but he did use quarters to knock out I think his two front teeth, as the story goes, but he hit him with He hit him with a fistfull of quarters, and down goes Dax and then the two of them attack both members

of FTR. Ricky Starks ran down to the ring with a chair, which caused j White and Starks the Fleet into the crowd. Starks got on the mic, he stood on the turnbuckles, he looked at them in the crowd. He was all fired up, and he said he's tired of basically, he's tired of this shit. And he challenged j White to a match on

Dynamite next week to put an end to this once and for all. And in that match, which has been made official, which is coming up next week, Jay White and Ricky Starks are going to go one on one with Juice Robinson at FTR, both barred from ringside. And that's interesting to me because it makes me think that with no one there to help Jay White and no one there to help Ricky Starks, maybe we might see a third member

of Bullet Club Gold debut. And especially now that we're getting into Forbidden Door season and I think we're gonna start to see appearances in cameos next week, I think, could it be a member of the new Japan roster who shows up to come to the aid of Jay White to help him beat Ricky Starks. Next week, we might get a third member of Bullet Club Goal. I don't know who that would be, but that would not at all shock

me. Next week. So then it was to the back to the president of the company, Tony Kahn. Tony Kahn had a special announcement to make, as I mentioned at the beginning of the stream, with regard to the debut episode of Collision coming up on June seventeenth. This was quick and to the point, they did not spend a whole lot of time on this. This was very quick and he made it very clear. He said that he is here to announce that Collision, starting June seventeenth will feature cm Punk.

And they cut to the crowd and what was a very noticeably mixed reaction. Plenty of cmpunk chants, and they clearly tried to find people in the crowd who were chanting cmpunk or were wearing cmpunk shirts. They were cutting to different people in different sections, but they could not hide the boots there were.

For all the cheers that there were, there were very noticeable boots. This was as mixed a reaction as cmpunk has probably ever gotten in his entire run in aw and he was a baby face pretty much for that entire run, although he may have had certain you know, heel moments, but you don't see this kind of mixed reaction for CM Punk since he came back to wrestling, so it was very noticeable. And Chicago is not the test because I already saw people online saying, well, you know, let's see what the

reaction is in Chicago on the seventeenth. The reaction in Chicago was going to be what you expect. He's the Chicago boy cm the Chicago made Cmpunk. He's going to get a hero's welcome. Could there be booze in Chicago? Whatever booze there may be in Chicago are going to be drowned out. June seventeenth in Chicago is not the test. The test is in week two when

they go to Toronto. The test is in week three when they go to Hamilton, Week four in Regina, or week five of the show when they go to Calgary, or after Calgary, they're gonna be back in the States. They're gonna be in Newark. I think the third week in July. Those are going to be the tests when they get out of Chicago and they're actually out of the country for the first few weeks because they have that big Canadian swing, So I don't know, maybe we got some Canadian fans here.

The Canadian people think of cmpunk. You know Canadian fans, they have their favorites, right, Hulk Coogan, no matter what, always went to Canada. Hule Cogan tried to kill the Rock in the build up to WrestleMania. He tried to run him down with a truck and murder him. And when he showed up in Toronto, he got cheered like the biggest baby face of all time. So I don't know how Canada is going to respond to

cmpunk. But that's the test. Chicago is not the test. And look, I think they have what six thousand tickets and change out right now for Chicago as of tonight. Now they've announced cmpunk. This is why Tony Khan wanted to get the name out there, because they have tickets to sell. They have booked, They have booked the United Center. When they were in the United States or two years ago for Punk's comeback, they put fourteen or

fifteen thousand people in that building. They're not putting fifteen thousand people in the building this time. We already have the cmpunk return once. I've talked about this before. You do something once, when you come back a second time, it's never as big as the first time. They're gonna have seventy thousand people, let's say in Wembley Stadium in August. If AW tries to run Wembley Stadium again next year the year after that, they're not getting seventy thousand

people, you get one shot at this. So this is now the second coming of CMPUNK. This is not the first dance. I'm not expecting them to get fifteen thousand people. But if they can't get ten thousand people in that building, that's not good. Because Tony Kank could have booked any other number of buildings in Chicago that would have been smaller and cheaper than the United Center. He booked the United Center because of CMPUNK. Now his name has

been announced, let's see what happens. Very curious to see how many tickets they move in the next week now that his name has been announced. If they're at six or seven thousand, now ten thousand should be a breeze. Maybe they get to twelve or thirteen. That'll be a test, as will the ticket sales for all of the other collision tapings, which last I heard, we're not doing too well. So of course he had to get this guy's name out there. He's got tickets to sell, and we'll see if

they announce a match for Punk on that first show. Is Punk going to come out on that first Collision and cut a promo like he did on the first Dance. I think he should be in a match. I don't think it's enough to have him come out and just do a promo, especially if he's not allowed to even talk about the Elite or brawl out or anything people would want to hear him addressing if he signed an NBA and can't talk about any of that shit. I mean, there goes a lot of the interesting

stuff people would want to hear him talking about. So in my opinion, you've got to get Cmpunk a match on that first show. And the rumors were that he wanted to work with Samoa Joe, And the reason Samoa Joe is on the Collision post and he's on the Collision roster is because Punk wants to work with him. I think that's great. If Punk's coming back, I'd love to see punkin Joe, And as I've said before, I think they should do that first match on that first Collision and Joe should beat Punk

in Chicago. What a huge moment that would be for Samoa Joe, and there would be a lot of people who wouldn't be expecting Punk to lose in his first match back. But he continues their story from their Ring of Honor days. These two haven't been in the ring together in almost twenty years. Punk can never beat Joe. I don't just want one cm Punk Samoa Joe match. I want at least two, maybe three. Therefore, Joe needs to beat him. What a bigger statement to make than in Punk's returned in

Chicago. Samoa Joe puts this man down better yet he puts him down in the matches and even all that competitive. But however they're going to do it. I would be surprised if they don't have Punk wrestling on that first show. I would think you want to announce an actual match for him. Now we've got three weeks. I guess right. It's about three weeks until the Collision debut and we'll see. Tony Khn got his man back. He wanted cmpunk back, he got cmpunk. He knows that he needs cmpunk to move

tickets. He needs cmpunk or some big name if he wants this Collision show to do well. The head of Warner Brothers Discovery is the one who went to Tony Khan and said, we want more programming from you. Guys. We're depending on you. We're gonna put you out on Saturday Nights Live two hours every week. Tony Kahn felt like, I need cmpunk. Even with cmpunk, there's no guarantee Collision's gonna do well and they're gonna be getting bounced

around. Do you think Rampage getting bounced around has been bad? Same thing may end up happening into Collision. It's gonna wreak havoc on the schedule with all the sports and everything. So I get why he feels he needs cmpunk, but there is a lot of baggage that comes with punk, And so for Tony konn sake, I certainly hope that things work out well for it, because the last thing he needs is more headaches like he's been dealing with over the last eight or nine months. He made his choice, he got

his men. For his sake, I hope it works out. So we got a three way match. This three way dance here was stemming from the Battle Royal with Double or Nothing. We had Swerve Strickland, we had Big Bill, and we had Trent Baretta. Swerve was responsible for Big Bill's elimination

on Sunday. Strickland immediately took a powder out of the ring. Trent Baretta decided to go ahead and dive out onto him, and then Big Bill went on offense, heading into the picture and Picture Baretta connected with a moonsaul from the second row to the floor to take out Big Bill. Then he ate a running punt by Swerve. Strickland wanted his double stomp. Bill thought up on the ropes with him and Trent joined Strickland up on the ropes and the

two of them then delivered a monster superplex the Big Bill. As Bill was kind of flying through the air for the suplex, I just had visions of the ring imploding. I had visions of that rain just collapsing inward. We've seen that stunt happen a bunch of times before you get a big boy like that ring didn't bring I guess they had the ring extra reinforced, and see I knew that was going to happen. Were we already have one person in the check? Why is Solomn Monster a punk hater? Or why does he

hate punk so much? What did he ever do? To him again. I'll say this once. I speak facts, I speak the truth. All I said is that this man has been a colossal headache in the past, per Tony con and Tony Kan knows what he's getting himself into. That is all I said. Where in that statement that I hate on Punk. I don't understand the brain rot in this community. I just don't. I don't get it. Where are the brainworms coming from? How are they infecting these

people? How did they get inside the skull? I don't get it. You know, I had something once. I had a squirrel that died in the wall, A fucking squirrel. Somehow it got in It died in the wall, right rest in peace. I'm sitting in the living room one day and I look on the dining room or not dining room, but it's like there's a table, a little coffee table in the living room, and I look on the table and there's maggots in like a couple of maggots in one

of the bowls. I'm just thinking of myself, what the fuck? How did they get in there? That was one of the telltale signs that we had something dead somewhere, but I couldn't tell you how they got in that bowl, So how they're getting in your heads? I have no idea. But all you people who want to go on and on and on and on and on about the hat on punk, go ahead. It amuses me. It amuses me. He doesn't even know you exist. Just be aware of that. Okay, he does not even know you exist. He's not going

to give you a free autograph. He's not going to give you a freehand job, all right, So calm calm down. So anyway, Monster Superplex here to Big Bill. He gets laid out in the ring, Trent Barretta connects with a half and half overhead supplex on Swerve ran into a big boss man slam by Big Bill, Bill and Barretta. They fought to the apron were Bill choke slammed him back into the ring. So Bill's on the apron.

He choke slams this guy back inside Strickland. As soon as he finishes the choke slam, Swerve comes off the top with a double stump on the apron to Big Bill. So that wipes out. That wipes out Big Bill, and then Swerve hurries back into the ring and he pins Trent Baretta one saying rest in peace to the squirrel in the wall. Well, he's just bones and dust. Now, that's what he gets for crawling into the wall. It's not my fault. Don't blame me, blame the person who owns

the house, who left that opening out in front. All I hear was a scratch, scratch scratch, Like, what the hell is that noise? Scratch scratch scratch? One day there was no scratching anymore, but man, did it fucking stink. Anyway, I enjoyed this. I enjoyed seeing Swerve pick up a win on Dynamite for a change, Right, how many times did I talk about how we never get to see Swerve or Keithley. There's certain people we really don't ever get to see on Dynamite. So the more

that we can see Swerve on this show, the better. We're gonna see him again next week. He's gonna be challenging Orange Cassidy for the International Championship next Wednesday. So I enjoyed seeing him. I enjoyed Big Bill, even Big Bill getting television time. I'd like to see more of him as well. It was never explicitly said here that this match was to determine a new number one contender for the international title, but it would seem that would be

the case. And then as we would find out later in the show, like I said, we know who the number one contender is now. So coming out of this, Renee was on stage to introduce the acclaimed and Billy Gunn was the squirrel named Rocky. I did not actually give him a name, so I no, I don't believe his name was Rocky. I don't believe his name was Rocky. I think his name now is his name is dead D E A D. That's what he is. It's the wall,

brother, It's the wall, you know. I did notice as soon as Dynamite went off the air, they had that was it Rich and Famous whatever that show is called. They had the show on Hulk Hogan and the Gawker scandal with a Gawker lawsuit or whatever. I'm getting ready, I'm getting everything set up here for the Dynamite stream, and I still had it on in the background, and as I'm going to turn it off, all I heard they had the footage of Hogan on the stand during the Gawker trial talking about

I do not have a ten inch penis. So I'm like, I'm turning this off at exactly the right time. So Renee said, Unfortunately, things did not go the way that the Acclaimed in Billy Gunn had hoped they would. At double or Nothing, they did not win the trios titles, and she said that you guys requested this time to speak. So Billy Gunn said that he felt like he let down the two people that mean the most to

him. Man, what do Austin and Colton think about that? Hearing that Max Castor told him not to feel bad, he said, together, they are the Acclaimed and they are the people's choice. Anthony Bowen said that a few months ago they got screwed out of Tag Team Gold. Yeah they did. Boy, they forgot about that real quick. The Acclaim seemed to just move on. They didn't seem too bothered by the fact that they got screwed

out of their Tag team championships. I don't know why that. He just walked walk over to FTR and say, hey, guys, you know, we kind of got screwed out of those titles. It's sure would be nice if you were to, you know, give us a title shot, but not gonna happen. So he said that they want more gold and he said this man he was pointing to Billy Gunn when he said this, he goes this man ride here. For all he's given us, he deserves to hold

gold one more time. Bowen said, everyone loves the Acclaimed, and that was the end of the segment. Yeah, he really doesn't. He really doesn't have to hold gold one more time. I like Billy Gunn when he comes out. I think his you know, airing with the Acclaimed is fun. People enjoy it. They do the whole scissor me. Daddy asked, thing, that's great. I don't particularly really need to see Billy Gunn holding

gold anymore, so, thanks anyway. After the break, Tony Schiavanni was back in the ring again to introduce us in the most disgusted way possible. He was repulsed by this. To introduce us to Don Callis and Knoski Tekeshta, who entered to heat in place of entrance music. The heat the booze from the crowd were their entrance music as they came to the ring. It's the best kind of music if you are a heel, there is no better music than that. That's music to your ears. Callus was drowned out in

the ring by the crowd. He got the dominic mysterio reaction, and he said he sincerely hopes these booze are not for him. He hopes these booze are for Kenny Omega. And the booze only intensified. He said he's the real victim here. Even louder, he said, he's done everything for Kenny Omega. I WGP title because of me, AW title because of me. We could barely hear what this man was saying. It was beautiful, he

said. Every morning he gets up, but he has to look at the scar on his head, twenty three stitches, he said, and he blames Kenny. He has destroyed his family. Kallis says, maybe I lost the nephew, but I gained a son, and he pointed to to Keshta, who he called the best athlete that he has ever seen in wrestling. You know who he's better than, he says, better than Ricky doze In, better than in Oki, better than Mata, better than Muto and oh yeah,

better than Okada, says you know who else? He's better then, and we're gonna show it very soon. He's better than Kenny Omega. And at this point in the promo to Keshta took the microphone and he spoke in Japanese to Booze. I don't know what he said, other than the name Kenny Omega. I heard the name Kenny Omega mentioned. Callis said to Keshta, is gonna cut the elite out of all elite wrestling. My god, the heat for this said, The heat for this man was nuclear. These

people would not let him speak. They hated this man so much. And I mean, what's to like, right, he's a very hateable person. He looks like a fucking lizard, so of course he's very Yeah, some people have like a punchable face, right, like a Sammy Gavara. Now they're trying to turn him into a baby face. But I mean, come on, he's coming out there, he's sticking his tongue out. You just want to slap the guy in the face. That's what makes him a good

heel. Don Callis is like, he's like a reptile, So of course he's the perfect heel. He's the perfect foil. Here. But somebody's shared a link on social media with me. They were in the crowd tonight. They were in the building in San Diego, and they were up in the cheap seats and even from up there, like they said, like they've never and all the times they've been to wrestling shows, they have never heard a

reaction, a negative reaction. They've never heard booze like this before. Clearly this person has never attended a New York Mets game in the last twenty years, but as far as wrestling goes, he had never heard a reaction like that the Callis. It was noticeable that when Callis mentioned Okada, he kind of singled him out there. He said, oh, even Okada, He's even better than Okada, and I picked up on night. Has me thinking that, you know, Omega really now is locked into this feud. He's

really locked into this feud. And Don Callis has screwed him over now a couple of different times. This thing is personal with him. It would almost feel out of place if they went into Forbidden Door in three weeks and they had Kenny Omega defending the IWGP United States Championship against will Osprey because Will Osprey is wrestling Lance Archer this Sunday at Dominion. The winner of that match is the number one contender for the IWGPUS title and I just assumed that the timing

is perfect. Whoever wins that match. Let's say it's will Osprey would challenge Kenny Omega and Toronto, it's Forbiddendorff at the US Title. Now I'm not so sure because now it feels to me like they're setting up for a tag team match, and I could see them doing Omega and Okada as tag team partners. Obviously they've been on opposite sides before. I believe they were tag team partners this year though, at the post Wrestle Kingdom New Year Dash show.

I could see Omega and Okada as a team against will Osprey and Takeshta, and that would be an incredible match. But they save the US title match for Wembley. I know it's a few months away. I don't know that there has to be a timetable necessarily for when he defends that championship next so they could do they could push it off for all in at Wembley Stadium, and they can have Will Osbrey challenging Kenny Omega for the belt at the end of August, do a tag team match at Forbidden Door, so that

Takeshten don Callis are involved and it keeps the story moving along. My assumption is they're going to save Blood and Guts for early July. That's what they did last year. They waited until I think a week or two after Forbidden Door and they did Blood and Guts on TV. So if it follows the same pattern, we're not getting that Blood and Guts match for at least another month, and they can bring any bushi or whatever they're gonna do to do

five on five. That's how I see things playing out. I think they may go to tag team route at Forbidden Door. But this was great. This was my favorite segment on the entire show. We got a highlights package of the TNT title ladder match with Wardlow and Christian Cage at Double or Nothing.

Arn Anderson talked about biting the dinosaurs thumb in that match, while Wardlow said Lucasaurus found out not to get involved in their business, but he'll be more than happy to finish the job if Lucasaurus wants to be the next in line. So that feud is going to continue. Where he beat Christian, now he goes up against Christians protege. He gets to go up against Lucasaurus. I don't know when, but that will be the next tant title match.

Darby Allen and Rage Cassidy against Bishop Kohne and toa Leona the Gates of Agony, two thirds of the Ring of Honors six men tag team Champions with Brian Cage. There are of course members of the Mogul Embassy. So for those who don't know, for those who don't pay attention to Rampage, which I'm sure is a good number of you, we had Worth Strickland and his

Mogul affiliates and we had the Embassy led by Prince Nanna. They merged and so now I guess it's the Mogul Embassy at least that's my unless something has changed, that's my understanding. It is still the Mogul Embassy and Tony conn was for the most part. A few exceptions, but for the most part. Tony Kann has been staying pretty true to his words since the beginning of the year that he was not going to have any more Ring of Honor matches

or Ring of Honor influence on the aw shows. He said this coming out of Final Battle, and for the most part he straight. He stayed true to his word to Night Alone, though we opened with a match that had the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions and then here in this match we had the Gates of Agne and you know, the Embassy and all that. So you know, look, I'll tell you what, Cone and Total Leona

were very impressive here in this match. They had an opportunity to go out there on a bigger stage than they normally have brought, a much bigger platform than Honor Club. They went out there on Dynamite and they took advantage of the time that they had. I thought they were very impressive, and I think it may be time to elevate them off of Ring of Honor or you know, away from ROH and onto Dynamite, because I think they would be

a very strong addition to that tag team division. They deserve a bigger spotlight after what I saw from them tonight. So Swerve Strickland, who again is part of this whole Mogul Embassy, he Brian Cage and Prince Nanna came strolling out early in the match onto the stage. They had a chair with them and so Swerve took a seat while Brian Cage and Prince Nanna stood on either

side of him. He was there to observe. So again to what I said earlier about whether or not that's gonna, you know, lead to a Swerve title match with Orange Cassidy, I mean this pretty much told you that that's the direction they were going in. Cohn pulled Darby Allen to the floor. He was running him back and forth into the ring in the barricade, then threw him against another part of the barricade toa charged Cassidy and sent him

flying with a shoulder blog heading into the picture and picture break. These two were taking advantage of these two boys because the story is that Orange Cassidy he outlasted twenty other men in the Blackjack Battle Royal on Sunday, and he's been on his last legs now for a few months, right, He's been defending that title non stop. He's just been wearing himself ragged. Darby was involved in that four Pillars match for the aw World title on Sunday and he took

a beating in that match. So these two came into the match at less than one hundred percent. So these two monsters were just beating the living hell out of him. That was the story of the match. So con plays Darby on top on the top turn buckle, picked him up while standing on the middle rope and then dropped him down onto the top turnbuckle. Darby of eventually got the hot tag to OC, who put his hands in his pockets. I can hear some people groaning at this point. He dodged the Heels

when they came charging at him. Cassidy put Cone down with a DDT for an ear fall. The Heels eventually regrouped. They had Cassidy pinned until Darby broke it up. Cassidy hit an awful looking double HRC and RNA and then tagged out. Darby ducked the punch from Toa, who got hit with the orange punch from Orange Cassidy. He hit a stun dog Millionaire on Cone and then dove onto Toah on the floor. Darby followed up with a coffin drop

on Cone and he pinned him. After the match was over, Strickland, Cage and Prince Nanna they all made their way down to ringside when Sting's music played, and Tony Schavani I mean he basically had a melt down and probably soiled himself at the commentary desk. Here comes Staying he's got his jacket on. Of course, they're selling these jackets. He's got to model them. Now. He's got his jacket on like it's September. He's got a baseball

bat. Of course, he never leaves home without always has that baseball bat with him. I would love to know if he takes that baseball bat truly does take it everywhere he goes. I can just picture him with that baseball bat whenever he goes to the grocery store, whenever he goes to the salon. Right, I'm sure Sting goes to the salon. He probably gets his hair, did he does get the manny and the petty and all that bullshit.

Right, he has that bat right next to him when he's there, takes his wife to the movies date night, goes out to dinner at the restaurant, Sir, can I check your coat? Sure? Can I check your bat? No? I could just picture him taking that shit everywhere. So he's got that bat with him. He comes down to the ring, swerve and the heels. They all think better of it, and they decide to bail and stands tall with Darby and Oc in the ring. I thought that this was a this was a fun match. I enjoyed this match,

a great showcase for the Gates of Agony. And you know, Darbynoc, they make a good team. I think this was the second time now we've seen them on television as a tag team, so they make a good team. Gates of Agony. Again, they took eighty five percent or more of this match. This was like a showcase match for them, even though they lost, and I would like to see more of them. But again, there's there's not really supposed to be any more mixing between the ROH brand and

AW. And I know, look, Samoa Joe is the Ring of Honor television champion. He's one of the featured stars on Collision, so I mean, it is what it is. If you gave me the choice, I'd much rather have Joe on Collision than Ring of Honor because I'm gonna be watching Collision. I don't watch Ring of Honor every week, and I don't get to see enough Samoa Joe, So of course I want Joe to have the

biggest platform possible. These two, I think would be a fine addition to that tag team division in AW. And also, you know, when this segment was over, we know that Orange, Cassidy and Swerve are going to be wrestling next week. It lefts you wondering if we might get a tag team match. Would Sting in Darby against the Gates of Agony, Gates of Agony against State. I don't know. I don't know if that would end

well for Sting. They're a very physical team. It would be like taking Veer and Sanga Indue Share from Monday Night Raw and putting them in the ring with Sting. Their styles, you know, them in the ring with sixty four year old Sting. Uh yeah, I don't I don't know about that. These two kind of remind me of of those two guys, just in terms of their you know, intensity out there tonight, their power, their

size. These guys are not as big as Indue Share, but picturing Sting in the ring, you know, working with these guys, that might be a bit of a risk. So we got a highlight video of mj successfully defending his AW World title at Double or Nothing. He is still the holder of the big Burnberry bell and we had comments from MJF that they spliced in I guess from backstage that night and he said the clock is ticking and AW

was running out of competition. They are running out of gladiators for MJF to slay, as it has been made clear that no one is on the level of the devil. Yeah, Blizzban says, they remind him of Faces of Fear. That's a good comparison. I could see that. Yeah, I could see Gates of Agony very similar to the Faces of Fear, except that you know meang, I mean, we're not comparing anyone's toughness to him. I would never dare do that. So what do you do with m JF.

That's the question. Now. They did nothing on this show to even tease a direction for MJF. Who the next challenger is going to be. I believe that Adam Cole being groomed for that spot in a few months. I'm thinking closer to like all out, assuming they're doing all out in Chicago. What do you do right now with MJF. Does he skip Forbidden Door? Remember in storyline and maybe in real life, who knows, But in storyline he despises Ring of Honor or not well, he probably does, but

he despises New Japan. I'm still talking about Ring of Honor. He despises despises everything. He despises all of it except WWE. He loves Nick Connon. WWE talks about him all the time, but he despises New Japan, puts him down as much as he possibly can. I think m JF, and it doesn't even have to be for the championship necessarily, but MJF and

Hiroshi Tanahashi still seems to me the likeliest match. If he's going to wrestle at that Forbidden Door show, and Tony Conn is gonna want MJF on that show, you MJF against Tanahashi. Tanahashi is he's one of the flag bears, one of the all time legends of New Japan. He's somebody who can take the loss right more probably a lot more palatable to them. If he loses, then let's say Okada or somebody like that, or Sonata. They

wanted to do champion against champion. I mean that never ends well, unless, of course, you're Kaito Kiamiya. At the time when he was the GHC champion, Okada had no problem beating him even though it was a champion against champion. But I'm thinking MJF in Tanahashi because they gave us nothing They gave us no hints or anything on this show about what the next challenge is

going to be for him. But if it's tied into this whole forbidden door stuff, my money's on Tanahashi. I think he would make the most sense. So Tony Schavani back in the ring again. You know, they've been outsourcing a lot of this work to Renee ever since they signed her, so support Tony doesn't have to keep getting up and down. But tonight they went right back to the old way. Tony Schavani's at the desk one second, the next second he's back in the ring. Then it's back to the desk,

then it's back to the ring. They were like tire tracks in the ground. He kept going back and forth this because it's how he gets his cardio. So again he was back in the ring. Before he could really say anything, he was interrupted by Hook Hook's music. Out came the FTW champion, who never speaks, so for him to come down here, I was like, Okay, let's see what this kid has to say. Of course, before he could even get a word out, he's interrupted, because

you can't cut a promo in this company without somebody interrupting. You. He's interrupted by Jose the Assistant. Tony was going to ask him about what it was like, you know, teaming up with the Hardy's on Sunday and helping Matt Hardy beat Ethan Page and now Matt Hardy owns Ethan Page's contract and whatever. So he's interrupted by Jose the Assistant. Jose the Assistant comes out with Dr Leistico and with Preston Vans, and he said that Ruche is not there.

Rush is too dangerous to be on TV because people were making a big deal about the match with him and Jungle Boy before Double or Nothing, where he beat the piss out a jungle Boy, took ninety percent of the match and got out of his snare trap finish. I mean that booking was wild, but there are actually some people who think he took liberties with jungle Boy, me a break, took liberties with him, wanted to business for himself. So hey, they're going to parlay that now into his gimmick. Right,

He's the most dangerous man in professional wrestling. So Ruche was not there. He told Dr Leistico and Vans as they're walking to the ring to teach this pedal a lesson. They called him a dog. See I know that called him a dog. Don't teach this dog a lesson. Jungle Boys music hit. Then he walked out with a chair to make the save for Hook, he took out Drew Leistico, He took out Preston Vance. Jose ran back into the ring right into a front head and arm suplex, and Hook

took him over. There was a moment in this after Hook took out Jose. We're Jungle Boys. In his leather jacket, He's got the chair in his hand. He's standing in the ring right next to Hook, and it looked as if he might be about to turn that chair on Hook. For a second there, I thought we might get that Jungle Boy heel turn I've been talking about, and we still might, but didn't happen. Tonight They played Jungle Boys music and that was the end of the segment. But for

a moment there, I thought he might take that chair to Hook. Still could happen, though there's still time for it to happen. Renee was backstage with the outcasts, Soreya, Tony Storm, and Ruby Soho. Tony Storm with the aw Women's World Championship that she won on Sunday, wrapped around her waist, and she said that some people would say she's just lucky. She would say that she's been wrestling more than half her life, ever since she was a young girl. Luck had nothing to do with it. She said.

They look around the locker room and there's no one who can touch what she does. Ruby said that nobody can touch Tony's work ethic. Tony said that she's going to be defending this title at all the House Rules live events that AW has coming up, because that's what a fighting touring champion does, throwing some shade at Jamie Hayter and probably throwing some shade at thunder Rosa as well. She said, the only lucky people here are the AW fans.

So no teas of who her next challenger is going to be. Shockingly, nobody entered after what I just said. Nobody interrupted this promo. How about that we got no teas about who she will be defending that championship against next? Could it be against someone from Stardom? I mean again, we have Forbidden Door coming up. Apparently Stardom, from what I understand, has a

pretty major show. I don't know if it's the day before or the day after Forbidden Door, and that might prevent any stardom talent from being on the pay per view. I expected some stardom participation in this year's show. If they have their own big show, it's possible they won't be on the show. But you know, maybe they'll do something with her and one of the Japanese talents. I don't know, but there there was no indication here on

this show about who she'll be defending that championship against next. Speaking of women's champions, in the very next segment, we had Chris Statlander, the brand new TBS champion. She is the one in sixty and one beating Jade Cargill on Sunday. Apparently Jade is going to be taking some time off now and when she is ready to come back, they're going to be giving her some kind of character refresh. So I don't know if that means turning her baby

face. I don't know what other kind of refresh they would be. She's been a heel. Maybe she'll come back as a baby face. But this was Chris stat Lander. If you can believe this. Chris stat Lander has been out since August. She blew out her a cl got hurt in August, had surgery in September. This is Chris stat Lander's first match on Dynamite since January of last year, so long before she blew out her acl for the second time, she was not on Dynamite. For the majority of last

year. She was on Dark and Dark Elevation and Rampage. Not a single match of any kind on Dynamite since January of twenty twenty two. That's ridiculous. So it's been a long time since we've seen her on this show. She was here to defend her TBS championship in an open challenge match against Nyla Rose. Now again, as far as if you missed a review on Sunday or Monday morning, I guess I was very happy to see Chris stat Lander back. I've been mentioning her name for months and months and months. That

title had her name on it. They were just waiting. They were biding their time, waiting and waiting for her to come back, and it was inevitable that she was going to get that TBS title. I'm not a fan of the way they did it. It was a big moment for stat Landers. I'm sure tonight she'll never forget very special for her. They had a great promo package earlier in the show, was very very well done. Those are the kind of video packages that will help get people over on this show.

Clearly it meant a lot to her. I didn't like the psychology of it, though, where you have this woman come back, this big baby face, And even though Mark Sterling got in the ring and said, hey, we'll challenge anybody. I mean, just just the notion that Jade the Heel just wrestled the full match, here comes Chris stat Lander. She beats her. This woman is already tired from the match. She just had for the baby face to come in there and do that. Instead of saying,

hey, you know, I guess who's back. I want you at one hundred percent. I'm coming for your title. She just beats her for it. You know, that's not the way that I would have done it. I didn't see the need to rush the belt onto her. I think you really could have made people, made the fans want to see Chris stat Lander win this championship instead of just throwing it on her. So I disagree with the way they went about doing it, but I'm very happy for it.

I'm very happy. Look, we got to the same place anyway, so it's not that big of a deal. It's just not the way that I would have done it. But they showed a shot of Tie a Valkyrie who lost to Jade on Sunday before Jade then lost to Chris stat Lander, so Tie is already lost. She's in the back watching this, observing the match, paying very close attention to the match on one of the screens in the

back. After a picture and picture breaks, stat Lander went up top, but she got her legs yanked out from under her roll to the floor, where Nila squashed her with a somersault sent on off the apron to the floor, and then followed that with a running cannon ball against the barricade, squashed her again back in the rang of jawbreaker puts that Lander back in control, and then she connected with a four fifty splash picture perfect four fifty splash for

the one two three, and in the back they cut to Tie a Valkyrie. She did not look very impressed by this win. So we did get a tease here. Unlike with the Tony Storm where there was no indication of who she's wrestling next, here it looks like they're gonna have Tie of Valkyrie stay in the Hunt to the TBS title, even though she just lost and she was you know, I can't say she was a heel. She didn't do anything. She just stood there. It doesn't make her a heel.

But Chris stat Lander is a baby face, so if they do this Tie, it would be the de facto heel in this program. But I thought it was a good welcome back for her on Dynamite. I thought she looked great in there, and it's good to have Chris stat Lander back. Yeah, she's been through a lot of shit. I really truly hope she can stay healthy this time. You know, you're always just one wrong move away

from some kind of freak injury. And I certainly, I certainly hope that she can put those behind her and that she's she's gonna be okay going forward, because they could really use her in this division. You know, she's a she's a strong addition to the women's division that has been missing for about nine months now. And they closed the show with Chris Jericho and Soreya in

a mix tag team match against Adam Cole and Britt Baker. Cole and Jericho had their unsanctioned match on Sunday at Double or Nothing, which was the biggest disappointment on that entire show. And I still had people arguing with me, Oh, you're being too hard on it. It was all the crowd.

If the crowd just was excited for it, but they weren't, and they should have been because it was one of the most featured us on aw television in the weeks leading up to that pay per view, and the finish they did and just everything about it, Saboo being the enforcer and showing up and doing one spot and disappearing, everything they did, it just it just didn't work. It didn't click. It was very disappointed. So now we get Cole and Jericho back in the ring. Here they start slugging it out right

away. Cole charged out of the corner with a laria before Sirea tagged it and she dared Cole to hit her. Britt Baker jumped in. She laid out Sirea with a sling blade and air raid crash. Sirea, though grab Paul Turner's leg long enough for Jericho to trip up Britt and that put his team in control. During the final picture and Picture break, Jericho took the referee as Ruby Soho and Tony Storm hit ringside on the flip side of the

break. Here come the rest of the outcast down to the ring to triple team Britt Baker until Caiushita shows up with her trusty kendo stick and she chases the outcast off to the back. Baker was able to make the tag to Adam Cole, who pounced on Jericho until missing a drop kick that led to a Jericho lion salt that got two Baker and Sirea. They tagged back in. They were fighting in the corner until Sirea got knocked off, and so she's on the floor and Britt Baker was on the top rope and I don't

know what britt Baker was going for, probably just a splash. We don't usually see her doing anything off the top rope. Jericho gets in the ring and he covers up Sirea. He's trying to protect her. He lays his body on top of her. Britt Baker comes off the top rope anyway, and she splashes down on both of them. Cole gets in he hits a backstabber on Jericho, who then countered a Panama Sunrise attempt with a Walls of Jerich or into a Walls of Jericho. So Britt Baker's on the apron while

this is going on. Britt Baker is on the apron and she puts on her glove. She gets in the ring and she applies lockjaw. She got Chris Jericho down on the match. He got the arm hooked, and she put lockjaw on Chris Jericho for a big pop. Siria broke it up. Cole went for a superkick, only to run into a codebreaker for two. Jericho and Cole they collided at the same time with clothes lines, so we got a double down. Both ladies jumped in they started slugging it out.

Soria turned a neck breaker attempt into beat what she calls the good Night, which is basically her rampage, her old rampage DDT looked like she spiked this poor girl right into the mat. And Jericho meanwhile grabbed a baseball bat took a swing at Britt Baker, who ducked it and he ate a superkick instead. Cole and Baker then hit dueling super kicks on j Jericho. Is Cole lowered the boom to the back of Jericho's head with the niche strike and he

got the pinfall to beat Chris Jericho. Jericho on the outside after the match was furious as Cole and Britt Baker celebrated inside the ring. I enjoyed this a hell of a lot more than I enjoyed their singles match on Sunday. I really did. And the best part about this entire thing, No fifty fifty booking would have been very easy for them to give Jericho his win back and to keep this thing going for a month or two months or three months.

We've seen this happen before with Jericho, Okay, I was worried about that no fifty fifty booking here. Adam Cole beat him on Sunday, and Adam Cole beat him again tonight, and that's very important if I'm right, and Tony Kahn is getting Adam Cole ready in a few months at the end of the summer to challenge MJ for the aw World Championship. Not a doubt in my mind that we're gonna get mjf Adam Cole. The only question is when are they gonna do it? I say all out, maybe it's not.

Maybe it's Wembley, maybe it's Full Gear in November, but it's gonna happen. And if it's gonna happen, Adam Cole needs wins like this. What he does not need is to trade wins back and forth for the next three or four months with Chris Jericho. And I'll give Jericho credit, you know, to his credit, he did the same thing with Ricky Stars. He wrestled Ricky on television the first time and he lost. They had a

rematchic Revolution, and he lost again. So here he lost to Jericho on Sunday, or rather Adam call on Sunday, and he lost to him again here on this show. So fair play to Chris Jericho for that. And then we'll see as far as though, when they start building something with him and Cole that is. And MJF. This feels to me though, like this thing is over. There's no real need for this to continue. And maybe I'm wrong, maybe there's gonna be third match, but there ain't no

need for it. There's no need for a third match. So I thought Dynamite overall was actually an excellent show tonight. They pushed forward the Elite and the Blackpool Combat Club stuff, mainly with the Don Kallis promo and what that promo was sort of teasing, even though Kenny wasn't there the Bullet Club Gold segment that set up a match between Ricky Starks and Jay White for next week.

Swerve is going to get a shot at the International Championship. So he was, you know, hanging around Orange Cassidy's match tonight, which made sense, and that title made you know. Look, I thought when Orange Cassidy did not lose at Double or Nothing, I said, well, they must be saving that title change for Chicago. Maybe they want to make a big splash on that first collision and he'll lose it there. He could lose that title next week to Swerve. I would love to see Swerve as the International

Champion. It could happen. It could happen next week. The acclaim they made it that they're not done going after the trio's titles. They want Billy Gunn to have a one more title run Stinging Darby against the Gates of Agony. I don't know if that's the plan, but it was sort of teas Maybe tonight Chris Statlander is back. It looks like she's gonna be doing the Open Challenge or continuing the Open Challenge for the TBS title and hopefully defending that

title on a regular basis. And Adam Cole hopefully has closed the book of Jericho slammed it shut. Can't say for sure, but that's what it looked like to meet tonight. Now they have what they are calling Championship Friday, or as Tony Shirvani said at the very end of the show, Night of champions that's what he said, but they're calling it Championship Friday on t NT. Right, Rampage is still on TNT. I don't know it's been bounced around so much, but it's on t NT. Rampage is back in its

regular time slot, believe it or not. I think they were this past week too. But after all the weeks and weeks and weeks of preemptions in different days, Rampages back at ten pm on Friday, and it's a quality lineup. It doesn't look bad. They have Eleo del Vikingo is coming back. I'll be calling his match. At a few weeks We got de Kingo though on Rampage defending his Triple A Mega Championship against Commander and Dreleistico, who

we saw on the show tonight. We have Willow Nightingale. She's going to be defending her newly won new Japan Strong Women's Championship against Emmy Soccer. Zach Saber Junior is going to take on Action Andretti for Saber's new Japan television title, and Katsuyori Shibata is defending his Ring of Honor Pure Championship against Lee Moriarty. So we are getting some new Japan influence. You can tell it's Forbidden Door season. We got some new Japan influence already starting up on Rampage this

week. That's a quality line right there. Some good ship coming up on a rampage on Friday, Dynamite next week. As I mentioned before. Right now so far, Jay White one on one with Ricky Starks, everyone's banned from ringside, and Orange Cassidy defends the International title against Swerve Strickling. So there you go. Let's take a look at the Twitter poll. We have got seventy six percent of you giving this show tonight a thumbs up and twenty

three percent giving this show a thumbs down. Pretty good score. That's a rebound from what I think that's a rebound from what it was last week. Right, I remember last week what the number was, but I'm sure it wasn't seventy six percent. At solom Monster on Twitter is where you can go to vote. So we'll go ahead and do something. All right, let's go through your super chats here. Thank you for all of the support, each and everyone who donates. I sure do appreciate it, Taylor Cannon say,

Solomonster, glad you're feeling better. Thank you, Taylor. I appreciate it. Not not one hundred percent yet, but much better than I was the other night, So thank you very much. You know, I was going to watch Raw, laid out to watch Raw. I'm gonna watch Raw in bed. Five minutes. I lasted five minutes. Pass right now, Raw really is? It really is just a great cure if you're having,

you know, issues falling asleep or anything like that. Not only did I pass out within five minutes of watching that show, I slept for almost ten hours. I can't tell you the last time I slept anywhere close to ten hours. So I have to thank w W eight apps. That was exactly what I needed, and I watched the show the next day. Silver Tower with the four bucks Callus has always had good heat. I thought that said something else. I remember back in ECW the crab would chant you suck dick

at it fun times. I'm trying to think if there's any other occupation in the world where if you had the craw well, I guess there would be one of other occupations people chanted that at you, you would know you were doing a good job. Chris with the four ninety nine at the event right now, everyone booed at cmpunk getting announced. Also could not hear a word. Don Callis was saying, I wonder if they piped in the noises on TV. Well, now, I mean if you're saying you couldn't hear what

he was saying. That's what I heard from a couple of other people too. Apparently it was that loud in the building. I don't think they had any need to pipe any think usually you could you could kind of tell. And all I saw when they showed the crowd were people on their feet booing the shit out of this man. Matt View happy to have you back and feeling well, thank you, Matt, very nice of you. A Matt burning kid. Christopher Bennett has been a channel member for thirteen months. This

is glad you're feeling better. Thank you for checking in on me. He checked in on me on Twitter two. You're one of the good ones. Brandon Walker has been a channel member for five months. Five in Kong, Bundy would appreciate that. Jacob Donnelly again, thank you for the remode. Earlier, Isaiah Duson with the ten dollars super chat had a crazy Monday. The Walmart that I used to work at had a shooting. Welcome to America. My mom was in the building and close to where it happened. Luckily

she got out without anything horrible happening to her. I'm very happy to hear that. Glad that she is safe and understand why Will Osper I can't. I can't imagine why will Osprey doesn't want to move to the US. I can't imagine why Daniel Parker with a nine ninety nine te Keshta loves his Cinnabon and a location put up a do not serve this man poster that is real heat. Can't wait to watch Unhinged to Keshtah Scorp's abandonment rank every WWE title

from the best and worst. Look well, I think if you look over my shoulder, you kind of know what I'm gonna put it. Numero uno. I think you know Winged Eagle, Big Eagle, Undisputed, probably in that order, and you know, every every other Ever since then, it's pretty much been logo belts. I mean the spinner. I hated, hated the spinner, even if it didn't spin. I just never liked that belt. But yeah, people who grew up on that belt, they're gonna look

at that belt and go, oh, that's the best belt. It's not. Ship never liked it, so yeah, I'd go Winged Eagle, Big Eagle, undisputed, Silver Tower. Thank you again for that thirty dollar Bully the Clown, thank you very much, Fire Panda, thank you. I don't remember a sound of Legend for nine months. Bliss Fan punching the air at the alex Lists News, Nick Grosso with the nineteen ninety nine Decent Show fun Mixed tag. I think it was the best Terreya looked in a while.

Very happy. Chris stat Lander is back. I think she joins the Homegrown Girls, and Taya joins the outcast, and is Don callis starting his own faction. I don't think he's starting a faction. I think right now it's pretty much just Takeshta. I don't, I don't. I don't think he's starting an actual faction right now. I don't get that sense. You

mentioned the Homegrowns and stat Lander joining the Homegrowns. It's possible, but you know, I'm wondering now that Jade has dropped the TBS title and she's gonna go away for a while, if they're talking about some sort of character refresh for her, I could see Jade Cargill linking up with the I mean, she is an aw original, right They pushed her from scratch, from nothing when nobody knew her. It would make sense for her to be part of

that group. Otherwise, what do you do with her? Daniel Parker with the nineteen ninety nine I get people like monks, but his Terry funk light gimmick is stupid. Daniel Seen and Claudio are better than him, yet he gets that rub just sick of it. Well you better get used to it, because he signed a contract that's going to keep him there through I think twenty twenty seven, so he's not going anywhere. Thunder Force two thousand cm Punk's returned to A and w on my birthday going to be quite the day?

Are you going to be at the show? Are you just sharing a birthday with him? Or with his return? Dan Richard CM punk is the new John Cena. It will draw money? I sure hope so, I hope for Tony's sake it does. It all comes down to ticket sales and pay per view buy rates. We'll find out. It won't take very long to find out. Uh scorps abandonment thoughts on the right Back versus Goldberg retirement match? And if you had to pick someone to face Goldberg for his retirement

match, who would it be and why? So? There is no rye Back Goldberg retirement match as far as I know. Unless you've heard something new in the last few hours that I didn't. Ride Back posted something on social media I can't see because he blocked me. I think he's blocked half the fucking world. But actually I don't. I don't know what. I think somebody sent me a tweet of his or something, but I didn't even know until earlier today. Apparently Swerve has me blocked, and I have no idea

why. I mean, I've I've certainly sung his praises quite a bit here on these shows, so I have no idea, but anyway, so yeah, barely, Rye bad Pot said something with like an aw logo, and he said that he he challenged Goldberg to a retirement match right back hasn't wrestled in like six years. I mean, please give me a break. As far as who I think it should be, I said, if Vince McMahon was going to give Goldberg a retirement match, bron Breaker would be the perfect

opponent for it. Goldberg against bron Breaker, they could do it at WrestleMania next year. Ron beats him and he ascends to whatever, you know, whatever is next for him, he can always say that he's the one who retired Bill Goldberg, like Baron Corbin future NXT champion. Baron Corbin will always be able to say that he's the man who retired Kurt Angle makes me fucking

sick. But bron Breaker, I mean, I watched that NXT Battleground show and that spot where Carmelo Hayes did the springboard off the middle rope and Bron's speared amount of midair was incredible, and I realized at that moment that bron Breaker has the best spear in wrestling, the best spear maneuver in wrestling since Bill Goldberg, and how some people are gonna go what about Rhino. Rhino had a great one. He had a great maneuver too, But bron Breaker

does it better than anybody I've ever seen since Goldberg and his prime. It's almost like he's in some ways the air Apparent in a way. Just he's got that explosiveness about him. He reminds me a lot of Goldberg. I'll take a bron Breaker Goldberg match over Goldberg and ride back. They're gonna make Corbin the lone Wolf again at NXT. He can't be the lone wolf. He's got no skullet. He can't be the lone wolf without the skullet.

Everyone everyone is, everyone is just you know, going nuts about this lone Wolf ship. I'm just like, you're fucking kidding me. This is a guy who has been booked like a fucking clown for how long now? He lost the Cameron Grimes and what four seconds? And he comes into n XT on day one and he's supposed to be competitive with Carmelo Hayes. Really that sure? It doesn't speak well to Carmelo Hayes. I mean people think about

these things before they speak. I mean, you might be able to build Corbin back up into something in NXT, but to just throw him into an NXT championship feud? What is wrong with you people? Corbin's back, He's back. You would think that this guy was like some some massive star back in the day. I mean, he had his moments where he was entertaining as the lone Wolf, and especially when he was healing at all the indie guys. But get break. I don't know. I guess some people are

just easily pleased. Daniel Parker Sala Monster. Why the fuck is a squirrel in my wall? Saloms squirrel? Delete delete, delete, Yeah, I think he deleted himself. I didn't do anything, Matt like the song Chris Miner with the ninety nine. I just lost my grandpa and he was the one who got me into wrestling as a child, took me to Saint Valentine's Day massacre, my first show. Keep your loved ones close and cherish those moments. So very well said christ I'm very sorry to hear about your loss.

We're all we're all thinking about you, but it is important to remember those moments. You get those moments, those are special. J Glow should or will cmpunk get another title? Run? Will we get an mjfcmpunk program this summer? We shouldn't. I would keep cmpunk as far away from that title as possible. Right now, excuse me, I'm losing my voice. I would keep cmpunk as far away from that title as possible, at least for the time being. Hunters Hybrid Media. Let's hear an impression of what

Vince Russo has to say about the cmpunk situation. Bro. I would if my voice wasn't still under the weather. Bro, Bro, I'm not at my best. Bro. This cmpunk guy, Brow, The things I would do with him, Bro. I hear he used to be a ladies man. Bro. I would have him hook up with every lady on that roster. Bro. Seawande says, go Braves, here you go. That's right. I agree, Go Braves, go right into traffic. Andrew Lima, have you ever lied awake at night and wondered who raised the briefcase on Steve

Aoston of the Ring nineteen ninety nine, No, because that's weird. I did wonder at one time back in nineteen ninety nine, I wondered who raised the briefcase, and then the next night on RAW, I realized it was probably the Big boss Man, and then I never thought about it again. I think you need to lay in bed at night and start thinking about other things. Perhaps you could think about this lovely couple right here and what you are going to get us when we register. We're going to register in a

few different places, and we will be accepting gifts very soon. I think that's what you should lay in bed at night and start thinking about. Start thinking about the happy couple. Jay Glow Ricky Starks, in an interview, said he hates the Four Pillars gimmick, feels it is an f you to the rest of the performers in the company. Do you agree? I think I don't think it's that deep. I mean, if he feels that way, he's he's certainly entitled to feel that way. But I saw the video

clip. I don't even know what that's from. He was on some podcast, obviously, UM, I really don't think it's that deep. I don't. I don't find it. Uh. Now, he's he's in the company, right, I'm a fan watching AW. He's on the AW roster. I don't find that to be anything overly offensive. These are the men who were there from day one, and it's a gimmick. So they called them

the pillars. They made some T shirts to sell they had pillars on them, and I, you know, I get what they mean when they say pillars, but I don't see what there is to really be too upset about. Andrew. Thank you, I love you too. Brother. Shout out to common person. Shout out to you as well, punkhead Beth Phoenix too. I believe a punk punk Back in the day, punk made the rounds right. There was bath, there was Maria, there was wasn't there a

Lida? I think at one point there was. I lost track After a while, I said, you know what, it is none of my business what the guy do is think he was sowing his oats. Good for him. Michael Darcy was at the show. Cannot hear don at all and after the night was the triple Threat on Rampage. Overall, a great night of wrestling. Swerve S probably blocked you because of shit, bro who knows?

Who knows? Everybody's so sensitive these days, Groovy Goose, do you think that we will see punk promos akin to the ones from his indie days. If he is a heel either way, I am officially I have officially gotten my bachelor's. I thank you for the awesome content and groovy community. Hey, groovy goose, congratulations getting your bachelor's. Bachelor's And what is it a Bachelor of Arts? Is it a Bachelor of science? Are you an eligible

bachelor? Do you need me to play matchmaker? What's going on here? Yeah? You know, based on that mixed reaction that you know, you could talk about Punk maybe as a heel. It's too early to just assume because of one mixed reaction to an announcement that Punk should go heal. Punk maybe should go heal. But let's see what happens. Let's see how the crowds take to him as the first few weeks before we make that decision.

Punk is a heel though, might be the way to go. But if they're gonna build that whole show around him, they're probably gonna want him as the top baby Bush. Daniel Parker chugs Army Bay Bay Cole's beautiful Worker, get him away from jere Blow. Zachariah with the nineteen ninety nine Zachariah, Thank you very much. I think Jericho should hang it up if his feuds, his feuds are washed and repeat at this point. But one consolation,

he won't ruin a tag team like he did Ortiz and Santana. Dylan Hensley, I started my wrestling training back in April. We've learned headlocked, shoulder blocks, body slams, and now we're learning chops. Chops really hurt. Yeah, yeah they do, yes, they do. You know what else hurts? Running the ropes. Running the ropes hurts. As I've found out recently at the Nightmare Factory, you don't do it the right way. Even if you do it the right way, but especially if you don't do it

the right way, they will buck you up. Those ropes will eat you a lot. Pillow versus pillow. Have you watched r R R? I don't know what that is? R r R sound like a pirate. I don't know what that is. I'm gonna assume no. Justin, Hessy, glad you are feeling better. Justin, thank you very much. I'm glad that I am on the mend here. I was miserable the other night, so naughty delicious chicken with flavor. I will give Collision a Chance and Dominion

this Sunday, and I will watch Forbidden Door representing New Japan. Of course, Naughty Delicious is a huge New Japan fans, so this is gonna be your month. Then we got The g One coming up, so Naughty Delicious is gonna be on cloud nine this summer. Joseph Brooks with the nine ninety nine by herself on whose streak should not have ended more Undertaker's WrestleMania undefeated streak or gold Bird's undefeated streak? Also, who do you think should have ended

taker streak if it had to end? Well, Goldberg streak was going to end at some point, it was just a matter of when. And I always felt like him losing to DDP at Halloween habit would have been the time to do it. Undertaker's different because Undertaker, I don't think that's Creek ever should have been. I really don't. But if you were going to have him lose to put you know, try to put somebody over, you know,

who should that person have been? You know at the time, and they didn't have a very good match, but I mean, you know, Roman, Roman reigns would make sense because Roman was the one they were really pushing It's just that the bands they didn't want to see baby Face Roman reigns.

But a guy like Roman would have made sense. I mean, you know, I mean, I can't think of anybody because in my mind I never would have ended the streets, So I never really gave much thought to, well it should have been this guy should have been that guy Roman would have made sense. But the conditions would have had to have been very different, because the fans would have just completely shipped all over that they already shipped

on him when he beat him in h twenty seventeen. An Undertaker had already been beat at that point. You know what that is. That's that's a good point. Bray Wyatt WrestleMania thirty one. You know again, if they were insistent on the street being broken, I probably would not have had Bray lose to the Undertaker. I wouldn't have had Bray loose to John Cena though WrestleMania thirty. I mean, it's no wonder that Bray, you know,

felt that he needed a complete character and gimmick overhaul. All of his big matches. He always lost, lost to John Cena, loss of the Undertaker, lost to Randy Orton. I know people say wins and losses don't matter anymore, but those people don't know what they're talking about. Wins and losses are not the end all be all, But yes, wins and losses do matter. And if you feel like they don't matter, it's because you're simply not doing a good job of making them matter. Wins and losses do matter.

And when you lose, when you run your mouth and you cut promos and you talk about how I'm gonna beat this guy, I'm gonna beat that guy, and you go out there and you lose and lose and lose, people are gonna look at you as a loser. So don't tell me that wins and losses don't matter, because I hear that, and that's just coming from piece's drivel, coming from people who don't know what they're talking about. Juan Sanchez just got out of the show Man. It was fun. Biggest

moment had to be the heat that don callous Scotts. Also, did you see the sign with all the is that a b Berkeley all the Berkeley on it? No? No, I did not. I'm not even sure what that means. Naughty delicious as I'll admit, I almost turned back into dried chicken without flavor when I watched the Double or Nothing highlights. Thankful that NXT WWE and New Japan prevented Todd Warner with the five Did you see the new Fight Forever gameplay today? What a redemption for Eddie Kingston. I did see

it. Eddie Kingston looks he actually looked like he had a soul this time. Eddie Kingston looks better in the gameplay than he did in that screenshot. That screenshot was horrifying. I just laughed at all the people who were calling all the people who were calling him because he calls himself the Mad King, but in that screenshot he looked like King Kong Bundy. They were saying, mad King Kong Bundy. I don't I just that just pop me when I

read that. That just bought me Mad King Kong Bundy. I still haven't been told with that. R r R stands for Andrew Leema. I'm hurting this week, But here's another five bucks for diapers for you and Alexa's new edition. That's very kind of you. We both thank you. We are both very appreciated. See that's the face I made when I learned the news because I was not expecting this news. I would imagine that's the kind of look that most men have on their face when they get the news that they're

not expecting. We're both very happy Sea Moon salt Ria Ripley is not a good women's champion. She doesn't interact with any of the other women or have compelling feuds with them, just squashes them. So that makes her a bad champion in that she doesn't interact with any of the other women. I mean, I'm not sure what that even means. I've seen her interact with women in backstage segments. I've seen her interact with other women on the show.

She squashes them. She squashed Natty. What did you expect her to do to go out there on Saturday and have a long, fifteen minute competitive match with Natty. I don't know what you were expecting. I guarantee you the next time she defends that championship it'll be more competitive. But if you're gonna put her in the ring with people like Zelina Vega and Natty, Ria Ripley

should be running through them and destroying them. If Ria Ripley ends up in the ring with Becky Lynch, if she ends up in the ring with Rick Hell Rodriguez. If she ends up in the ring one day with Bianca bel Air or Charlotte Flair, I guarantee it won't be a squash. You'll get the competitive But well, I'm usually already have the mattress. Charlotte at WrestleMania

this year, that was pretty competitive to me. But I don't know why you're expecting anything other than a squash when she's in there with people who are half her size, or she's in there with someone like Natty who hasn't done anything in years, whose main purpose there is to help get the other women over. I would I would hold off on judging her title reign until they actually get her some good challenges. That's not her fault. You can blame

Triple H for that and the wonderful creativity. Juan Sanchez also, I bought the TNT replica title the Black Strap. Now I have five replica else. Well, that's very cool. That's one more than I have. Naughty Delicious says whenever Jericho is cooking, now turns into dried chicken. Silver Tower hope CM Punk helped Collision. I want this to do well. I grew up on WWE, but having an alternative to WWE is good. Of course, having options is never a bad thing. You always want at least one strong

alternative. Trill Mexican three oh five. Hey Solo, thanks for telling me on Twitter yesterday. Congrats on my twelve years sobriety. That meant a lot. Hope you're having a great night, and I meant it too. It's very happy. I think that's very cool and long may it continued. So you were very welcome. Nick Grosso, did you catch Dark Side of the Ring last night? I did not. I'm I'm still waiting for a link to pop up somewhere. I do not have vice. I do not have

vice. So once it pops up where and I can actually watch it, I will hopefully be able to do a review on the show on Sunday floor let us hope and Wanakampo, did you hear McAfee take a shot at AW on his show? I saw the clip, you know again, I just think it's it was not the right time to be taking a shot at AW.

The same weekend that NXT, you know, had a show where people took similar pictures of a mostly empty building, like, are we really going to be slinging mud back and forth, like taking hot shots about attendance when on the other show the attendance was pretty much you know, I don't want to say it was equal, because I'm pretty sure AW had a lot more people in the building than an XT did. But you know, again, it's they rope off certain sections and you have half the arena is empty.

Nobody should be gloating about this past weekend except W for Knight of Champions. Knight of Champions, by all accounts, was a smashing success for that company over in Saudi Arabia. Otherwise, AW should not be gloating about the attendance, which was not all that impressive as compared to past years of double or nothing, and NXT certainly shouldn't be, or anyone as far as the NXT troopers or fans should not be gloating about their attendance either, because it didn't

look all that impressive from the photos I saw either. I just think it's just stupid. I think it's all very, very stupid. We had someone who was it was Silver Tower, Yes it was silver Tower, gifted ten more channel memberships. Look at all of these new members Now, look at this rob Undead Silver Dollar nineteen eighty nine. Justin Bradley Bash Bash eight is now a channel member. Welcome, Welcome, Welcome, welcome, and we have now I said the goal. What I say the goal was for tonight

for be the book of four hundred right, four hundred. Well, we smash that. We smashed the goal, Guys Moreau and Moreau and MOREAUA what can I say? Thank you for the fifty bucks man? Do you think that there is more leeway towards WWE than a E W AW has its faults, and there is valid criticism to the show, but it seems at a large portion of the wrestling audience and mainstream media criticize AW for the sake of it. There are certainly people who do that. There are certainly people who

will criticize AW because they just want to shit on it. But I don't completely agree with that. I think that there are valid criticisms to the AW product and you can state those criticisms. I think that it's absolutely fine if you have criticisms with the AW product at the booking of the pacing of the shows of Tony Khan state those criticisms as long as it's done in good faith.

You know, it's the people who just bash for the sake of bashing that you can't take seriously because you know those people have an agenda, and you can say the same thing about WWE. Like for me, any criticism that I levy against WWE is criticism that I feel is valid. It's criticism that I feel needs to be stated because I want to see improvements made in certain areas. I want to see improvements made as far as the tag team division, and I feel like they've made some. I want to see improvements

made as far as the women's division, which has been awful. So there are certain areas where I will say that this company is having issues here here and here, here's why, here's why this sucks, here's why this needs

to be fixed. And oh, by the way, here's this great stuff that they're doing with the bloodline, or here's this great stuff they're doing over here with Imperium and with Gunther. But you have people, You will always have people on both sides of the fence, whether it's Team WWE or Team AEW, where any criticism is not accepted, any criticism is taken as a personal shot, like an arrow to the chest. They take it like they bleed. They bleed for their company. I find that so it's it's bizarre

to me, and it's pathetic. I find that very sad people who take it so personally that any negative slight and they come back with insults or they have to insult the other company. Or you're a hater, you're this, you're that, Your channel sucks, your show sucks, your opinion sucks, You suck. Why Why because I stated the obvious, because I disagreed with you, because I didn't suck on the teat, because I didn't lick the boot. I mean, those are the people that I just can't take seriously.

So, but criticism is fine as far as these different companies is concerned. Just just do it in good faith. It's pretty simple to me, Silver Tower. Doesn't matter if you are an aw or a WWE guy, support your favorite wrestling company. We need more packed buildings for wrestling shows. Packed buildings are certainly more fun. They're usually louder. Hey, Chris Manson has been a channel member a Sound of Legend for twenty five months. Halfway

through the year. What has been the match of the years so far? For me? It is MJF against Brian at Revolution. Hmm, well, I've got my own level running list of the Match of the Year contenders so far. I was quite fond of the Wrestle Kingdom match with Omega and Osprey, so that's that's gonna be way up there. The Iron the Iron Man matches is fantastic from Revolution, but there were a bunch of matches I really enjoyed a wrestle Mania this year. That's a hard one. I don't know.

I don't know. We're not at the midway point yet. Let's wait until the end of June, right end of June, middle of June. Then we'll be at the halfway point. We're not there yet. There's a lot of contenders though, I think I already have on my list at least probably at least fifteen matches on there already. We're not even at the halfway points. Ah he doctor Dakota Scorpio coming in with a super for chat here. I want to see AW crash and burn like the one hundred win Mets

last season and postseason. I joke, uh, Bony with the five bucks, you can be the WWE fan, you can be the AW fan. Just know the real wrestling fans are at the NWA. Oh that's right, that's right. Remember Billy Corgan told us this week that if we don't want to watch Tyrris, we're not real wrestling fans. As I said online the other day, I said, well, guys, it's been a great run. It's been a it's been a great run. It's been you know, jeez. I mean, for me, what's it been thirty five years?

Thirty six years? I had a good run. I guess all right, we smashed to be the booker. Goal enough of this. Let's book some matches, ladies and gentlemen. It is now time to be the booker. It is time to be the booker. I think we went oh for three the other nights. What was that? What was that? Was the double or Nothing review or the I've been doing so many reviews I lost track. It was either the Night of Champions review or the Double or Nothing review where

I went over three. So we've we've got to up our game here, and then I'll get back to your super chats. Let me see those be the booker emojis. If you are a Channel member, you can throw up those B two b's in the chat as we kick things off here on the men's side. For those who don't know, I'm sure you all know, but if you don't know, we do a men's match, a women's match, and a tag team match, and I will tell you that I updated tag team be the booker. I made some changes, I got rid of

some things, I added some teams. So we'll get to that one here at a second. Hey, there's Vincenzo Vincenzo McMahon on the screen right now. Hey, doctor Dakota, thank you for the super chat. We begin with Jane E Cornette. Look at Yoko zoonas thigh. My god, oh god, Jim Cornette. Oh, there could be some fun ones here. I think Orange Cassidy's in here somewhere, and a Russo's float around in here somewhere. Jim Cornette gonna go one on one with David Arquette former WCW World

Heavyweight Champion, David Arquette, Dewey, David Arquette and Jim Cornet. I think even Jim Cornette would give that the buzzer. I think Jim Cornette would would do a lot more than give it the buzzer. You probably beat me over the head with his tennis racket. All right, let's book of women's match here. We'll begin with Tory formerly of DX Tombstone. Tory. We've landed on her a few times, landed on Tori a few times here and be the book. Tori gonna go one on one with rowdy Ronda Rousey.

What do you guys think? I'm on the fence with this one, Ronda Rousey? And now you know what, now at a moment of weakness there, but now I can't. I can't do it, can't do it. Let's go to other tag teams now. So, like I said, I made a few changes here, maybe we'll land on some new teams. I can't. We can't go over three twice in one week. We just can't do that. I can't accept that. Begin with Lax. Well, this is like the original Lax. Here we got homicide, and we got her

Nandez Homicide and her Nandez the Latin American exchange. Who oh who will they begin to get to the ring with drumroll please? The Lax taking on l O D with Animal and Heide and Reich, Oh my god, oh my god, oh for three the actually amazing goom far Jerry Mahler loves Gomfar and Maicent. Oh hell goo Far. What's going on? What's going on? What's going on? How come nobody's here? Nobody's here here? The booker Hello, Hello, Hello, anybody? Anybody? Anybody? Hello? Hello?

Hello? All alone here? Oh for three It's terrible. And that was Darth Bullsy with a fifty dollars super chat. Orange Cassidy is very popular. He would have gotten over in the nineties. It is obvious. Oh that's gonna that's gonna get you some hate. I don't disagree with you, by the way, I actually think that gimmick would have gotten over. We're talking about a period in the nineties where salam Master could Philip Bingo Hall who

said that Matt View, I'm looking at you, Brick Darth Bullsey. Though. Look, you're talking about a period in the nineties where people were cheering for a guy with a mannequin head. They cheered for a guy with a mop. I think Orange Cassidy would have gotten over too. I agree with you all these people who think, oh my god, what has wrestling become? Orange Cassidy that never would have flown in the nineties. I got news

for you. He would have gotten over in the nineties. I'm not saying he would have been pushed as a main eventor but I think he would have done well. Hey Seth, thank you. I appreciate that. In Ballsy, thank you for the fifty bucks man. That's awesome. Let's see here. I missed a few, so I'm gonna go through all of them. Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry. Silver Towers. Silver Tower says, be the booker hates us all. I don't know. It's like it's

revolting against us. I don't know what's going on here. Doctor Scorpio says how many wrestling fans does it take to screw in a light bulb? Not much because most wrestling fans aren't that bright. I actually agree with that one. You're not wrong based on my experiences on social media. You're not wrong. Naughty Delicious says, I'm the real father of Alexa's baby. Let's go on, Maury and Doctor Scorpio. We went one for nine. We went we went one for nine to end be the booker for May Jesus? Did

we really? I think you're right. I think we did. We went one. We went one for nine. Fit right? In on the Mets. Oh boy, well, what can you do? All you can do is turn around and do better than next time. Right, that's it. As long as we hit the goal, We'll try again on Friday. Friday

Night. We got smacked down. Friday Night. We have the one thousand day celebration for Roman Reigns coming up on SmackDown, and we have two Money in the Bank qualifying matches La Night and montez Ford and then Lacy Evans against Zelina Vega. So I'm picking La Night and Zealina Vega to move on. La Night can't even qualify for Money in the Bank. I just don't I just don't know. I just don't know what the fun Triple A shes doing. I like montez Ford, but not against La Night. So that is

coming up on Friday Night. And Silver Tower knows how to close out the night with styles because he just gifted twenty more channel memberships. Oh boy, look at this, look this whole look at this list. Steve. Steve is convinced that Silver Tower is John Gotti, is Professor John Gotti. He may be. You know what, I think he's bested John God. I think he killed John Gotti. Is what he did. He buried him out back. It's like, we don't need no stinking John Gotti. We got

Silver Tower. He's the new Don. Silver Tower is the new Don. We gotta kis the ring man. Well, welcome to all of our new channel members, by the way, and all your your access to all these wonderfull emote Hey, Steve, let's let's start putting our heads together. You and me should start thinking about some new emojis to add to these. We gotta we gotta have even even more emojis here. But you now have access to all of those, so enjoy. I will be back with you on

Friday night. I am feeling better, thank God, so we'll be I've on Friday, of course, episode eight eleven of the Sound of coming up this Sunday, as we do each and every week. Thank you for all the support, Thank you for all the he still got super chats coming in, but thank you for all the support and all the messages. It means a lot to me, it really does, and especially the other night, I really didn't want to miss the raw stream. I felt bad about that.

I hate I just hate missing streams, but believe me, it had to be it would have been a mess. If I was on here on Monday night, it would have been an absolute mess. What is this? What do we got here? I saw something? Was that James Cooper. James Cooper just dropped a nineteen ninety nine super chat here. It is James Cooper. Thank you, Solo and all the odds.

You rock, And I just wanted you to know that Darth Bullsy with a one hundred dollar supertest getting the yes treatment here from the sound of crowd, Darth Bullsy with a one hundred dollar bomb. People do

forget that comedy was a big part of pro wrestling. That is one of the reasons why it was so popular, especially when The Rock was still famous. One of those reasons comedy Stone cold beating on Vince was always comical. The best shows of WWE, most were funny. It's a good it's a good point. And somewhere along the way over in the more recent years WWE, it's almost like they forgot how to do comedy because a lot of their comedy was very hit or miss. But you're right back in that period,

a lot of it was comedy base. That's a very good point. You know, comedy done right in pro wrestling is very entertaining. It's when comedy has done wrong in wrestling that it just, you know, it just ruins the show. So that's a very good point though. But hey, Bullsy Man, thank you very much.
